Please be aware that there will be strong language and talks about death, depression and loss during this podcast, so please take good care.
There are more to relationships than just romance, there are many faces of love beyond that of a mate. In this podcast we will talk about the other kinds of love that has sustained us even before the pandemic, relationships that has taught us more about humanity and being human.
First is Ashley Caranto Morford who talks about a very special ballerina in her life, while Claire Latosinsky confronts guilt and time as she expresses deep love and admiration for a family member. As for me, your host, Sheilah Madonna, well, I guess you'll just have to keep listening.
Ashley is a scholar and educator whose community and academic work "are interconnected and in relationship with Indigenous Studies, Philippine XO Studies, Critical Race Studies, Anti-Colonial Processes and Practices, BIPOC or Black, Indigenous, People of Colour Solidarities, and Digital Technologies."
She just recently moved with Lu, who is not only a seasoned traveller but also an excellent travel buddy, from Tkaronto to Lenapehoking, which is colonially known as Philadelphia.
My deepest gratitude to Claire who provided the music for this podcast in honour of Matilda, my love.
